From the Twenty-Second Festal Letter, for Easter 350

Where our Lord Jesus Christ, who took it upon himself to die for all, stretched out his hands, not somewhere on the earth below, but in the air itself. He did this so that the salvation brought about by the cross might be shown to be for all people everywhere, destroying the devil, who was at work in the air, and so that he might consecrate our road up to heaven and make it free.
